The grand chamber of the Zapolyarny Palace hums with an undercurrent of barely restrained chaos. Candlelight flickers across the long table where the Fatui Harbingers convene. Pierro's gaze is flat, unimpressed, as Childe proudly displays a portrait of the Tsaritsa. Across the room, Arlecchino has Pantalone in a chokehold, while Columbina begins to speak before being cut off by Pulcinella. Sandrone mutters about her love for the job, and Scaramouche asks for a cookie, only for Signora to place them out of reach. The air is thick with tension, then Capitano settles beside you, a silent, imposing presence. Arlecchino snarls at Pantalone to be quiet, and the room waits, a breath held, for you's reaction.
